Cala Saona Hotel & Spa

A very nice and modern hotel with all the amenities you need for a beach getaway. It's on the beach and you can walk down and enjoy the sea or if you prefer, you can stay at the infinity pool and have a nice drink from the tiki bar. There's also a lap pool by the gym. The spa is small but has everything you need, a hammam, a Finnish sauna, a small indoor pool with jets and a plunge pool. There's a fancy tasting menu kind of restaurant on site as well as a snack bar and there's a Mediterranean restaurant on the beach as well as a beach bar. The room is spacious, modern and clean.

We had a very enjoyable stay at Hotel Cala Saona. The breakfast was excellent, and both the bar and the restaurant offered great service and tasty dishes. The location is lovely, with a beautiful beach and a calm, relaxing atmosphere.||The hotel is well-maintained and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout our visit.||One small downside: the “room with garden view” didn’t quite live up to its name — the actual view was mainly of the parking area and some bins above. Not a dealbreaker, but something to be aware of when booking.||Overall, a great hotel in a wonderful setting. Would definitely recommend, with just a small note of caution on the room view.

We chose this hotel for the proximity to the sea, and it did not disappoint! We heard the waves at night from the bed. Breakfast is delicious and with lots of choice, good coffee. The service at the spa desk, and some of the breakfast staff, are too relaxed for what you pay. Beds are too hard but pillows nice. The cleanliness is super, the food at the bar good, the view fabulous.

Gorgeous hotel in a quiet bay. The sunset is indescribable. The room was unbelievably great. The whole experience was only topped by the exceptional staff, who were very courteous and extremely hospitable in every situation. We will definitely be back.

We only ate at the restaurant but what a fabulous dinner. The food is all your traditional favourites like Russian salads and croquettes but done to an exceptionally high class twist. I loved everything, flawless food and we had lovely service plus a great espresso martini!

We are having a wonderful experience at Cala Saona Hotel. The hotel's standout feature is definitely its location, right in front of the stunning Cala Saona. This hotel offers a perfect setting to enjoy a breathtaking sunset, and the hotel’s fantastic restaurant and bar make the experience even more enjoyable. The service at Cala Saona Hotel is exceptional. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted warmly and assisted with our luggage. The staff, particularly the polite lady who welcomed us, ensured we felt at home. We also appreciated the help of Fernanda, who does an excellent job cleaning our room. Everything was spotless, adding to our overall comfort during the stay. The rooms are a bit on the smaller side, but we opted for a sea-view balcony, and it was absolutely worth it. Initially, I was hesitant about paying the extra for the sea view, but it turned out to be a great decision. The view was stunning, overlooking Cala Saona, and added a special touch to our stay. The rooms are extremely clean and comfortable. While the rooms may not be spacious, the large balcony compensates for this, offering ample space to relax and take in the beautiful surroundings. The breakfast at Cala Saona Hotel is another highlight. The variety and quality of the food were impressive. One of the best aspects is that the eggs are made fresh to order. You can ask for any style of eggs, and they prepare them for you on the spot. The quality of the ingredients and the taste were outstanding. I particularly appreciated that they offered avocado—a sign of a well-thought-out menu. The coffee was good, though surprisingly, they don't serve a proper cappuccino, which was unexpected given the island's popularity with Italians. However, the espresso quality more than made up for it. The Spanish ham was also excellent. Although we didn’t use the spa, it looked very inviting and is included in the stay, which is a great perk. The hotel is inclusive for families with babies or children, which we greatly appreciated. However, it still maintains a peaceful environment, making it suitable for all types of guests. The only downside was the dinner offering. The hotel only serves a tasting menu with around 18 courses, which can be quite expensive. While it could be a nice experience, it's not something you necessarily want to do every night, especially if you're looking for a beach style dining option, like grilled fish. I was quite surprised to learn that the hotel is not rated as a five-star establishment. It offers a wide range of services and amenities that you would expect at that level. The only aspect that might not align with a five-star rating is the size of the rooms. However, with the large balconies and the overall quality of the experience, this is a minor point. The price reflects a five-star experience, which is understandable given the hotel's prime location. Overall, Cala Saona Hotel provides an excellent combination of location, amenities, and outstanding service. For a small island like Formentera, this hotel exceeds expectations. Despite a few minor drawbacks, I highly recommend Cala Saona Hotel for anyone looking to experience the beauty of Cala Saona with a touch of comfort and hospitality.

If you like to be looked after and to feel like you are on holiday in a special place. Don't come here. This is a two star at best.

The Hotel is lovely so far we know from friends. We live in Alicante and come over once/ twice a year just for a day visit and have lunch at the Saona Restaurant. This year: Restaurant was not well visited: 5 tables! We waited 10 minutes, nothing. Question es the Service for cleaning the table and some drinks; answer: do you have a reservation? No! No service for another 5 minutes. Questioned the “supervisor”! I will no repeat his answer! Shame on you! |Reported this to the reception and left! Never ever again and will definitely not recommend to friends anymore!
